ILLINOIS ENGINEERS
APPLY FOR CHARTER
AMERICAN ASSOCIATION OF ENGI.
NEERS OF CHICAGO RECEIVES
PETITION FROM UNIVERSITY
The American Association of Engi-
neers at Chicago has received an ap-
plication for a charter for a local
chapter to be established at the Uni-
versity of Illinois. The application
was signed by 20 certified students of
the university, D. R. Norris, '17E,
heading the list.
Competition for this honor has been
very keen among the larger engineer-
ing schools of the country, and it was
only by a narrow margin that the
charter was granted to Illinois. The
chapter at Illinois will be the first
university- chapter of the engineers'
national business organization, and it
will offer great opportunities to the
student members. The organizaition
will help in the encouragement of
business training, and will give co-
operation when employment is needed.
It also gives the student the oppor-
tunity of starting a record for char-
acter and training in the files of the
national headquarters.
The establishment of this chapter at
Illinois is largely the work of one
man, D. R. Norris, '17E. Norris be-
came a student member while in the
employ of the Illinois Central railroad
during the summer vacation. His work
kept him in Chicago, and while there
he became so deeply interested in the
association that he determined to un-
dertake the formation of a student
chapter immediately upon his return
to the university in the fall. He took.
up the work last September, and it was
largely through his efforts that the
charter was finally granted.
The temporary officers of the chap-
ter are: D. R. Norris, chairman; Victor
A. Pecchig, secretary, and Harry E.
Fisher, treasurer. The requirements
of the organization are few. There is
no initiation fee, and the dues are but
$3.00 a year, $1.00 of which goes to
the Monad, the balance being used to
defray local chapter expenses. Only
juniors and seniors in good standing
are eligible for membership.
Besides the students who are inter-
ested in the new movement are several
faculty members. Professor F. H.
Newell, head of the department of civil
engineering, and Professors Ira O.
Baker and J. A. deTurk are actively
interested in the work.
Local chapters of the association are
being established in many of the large
cities, and the work is being pushed
forward rapidly. The present enroll-
ment numbers 1,590.

Nance, today started a fight on pro-
fessional "baby farms" in Chicago.
The action is the outgrowth of an in-
vestigation. Officials estimate that
more than 500 babies from four
months to four years old, are being
starved to death in the "baby boarding
houses," every year.
The average charge for keeping a
baby is $3.00 a week, of which the
"landlady" spends 60 cents for the
child's food, the rest being pocketed
as profit.
Besides crowding dozens of babies
into filthy hovels, where they slowly
die of mal-nutrition, commonly known
as starvation, and attendant diseases,
many of the houses are abortion mills,
where a baby will be "disposed of,"
for $25 or $50, the investigators found.
Babies are said to be carried out for
burial in suitcases.
"About one-fourth of the babies are
illegitimate," said Arthur A. Guild,
officer of the juvenile protective asso-
ciation. "In many cases the children
come from homes where the father or
mother has deserted the family. And
there are a few instances where a
family is able to take care of the baby,
but does not want it around."

quet hall in the city. The Delta.

TREND TO CONTROL BY STATE
SEEN IN LATEST FOOD RIOTS
Bache Review Comments on Move-
ments of Steel and Quotations
of Stock Market
"The riots against high prices of
foods are inciting the legislators to
drastic measures for control of prices,
but these are rarely efficacious," says
the Bache Review. "The car shortage
situation is responsible for much of
the scarcity. A part of the work of
the railroads and the commerce com-
mission has been the gathering togeth-
er of empty cars in the East, and for
the last day or two, hundreds of empty
cars have been rushed from congested
points to places where needed.
Taxes on Amusements
Legislators, both state and national,
are seeking to raise revenue by taxa-
tions. The Albany legislators have
been attempting to place a tax on
movies, but has met with great difficul-
ties, and it is doubtful that such a tax
will be imposed. The state of New
York is trying to pass a bill taxing
all amusements, with the exception of
church and county fairs, in proportion
to the amount of money taken in by
the firms concerned.
Profits in Steel
The net profits of the Steel corpora-
tion during its 15 3-4 years of opera-
ation have aggregated as much as $1,-
270,000,000. Dividendssamounting to
110 1-4 per cent on the 7 per cent pre-
ferred stock have called for $421,000,-
000; and upon the common stock divi-
dends totaling 52 1-2 per cent and
calling for $267,000,000 have been
paid.
Market Situation
Since the decline, caused by the first
outbreak of indiscriminate submarine
aggression, the stock market has been
showing a belief in the stability of val-
ties. Its course after recovery has
been influenced by day-to-day hap-
penings. Until the permanent effect
upon the export trade is weighed up
activity must be curtailed-stocks are
in strong hands and the level of
prices is comparatively low.

quet hall in the city. The Delta.

safe majority. The chief purpose of
the enactments asked by the president
is to protect American shipping and
Republicans as well as Democrats are
commended to this policy.
Senator Thompson's View
Senator Thompson of Michigan pre-
sented his views as follows:
"It is a monstrous proposition. No
dictator could ask for more authority.
For atresolution grantingsweeping
authority, it will be defeated until
March 4."
Senator Weeks of Massachusetts
said:
"I do not believe any resolution
which grants the president sweeping
authority will be adopted."
Senator Jones of Washington said:
"It is a beautifully expressed request
for more power, and a subtle expres-
sion of distrust of the congress. I do
not think we will sign any blank
checks."
LaFollette Seems Disturbed
Senator LaFollette was apparently
much disturbed over the request of the
president for authority. He listened to
it in the house, and when it was
through, threw back his shoulders and
doubled his fist as if he were in a
mood to make a fight. Some took this
to mean that a resolution of some com-
prehensive sort granting undefined
powers to the president, may encoun-
ter protracted opposition.
